Name of quilting gadget?
 

I've forgotten the name of a favorite gadget and need to order more - can anyone help? They are spongey (?) ear plug looking things that are put on the sharp end of straight pins making it faster and easier to pin baste a quilt. Far superior to safety pins! Thanks in advance for your help.

I think they are called Pinmoors

You can see them at Nancy's Notions. I saw her video demonstrating them and ordered some.

YEP! Pinmoors, LOVE them!!

I've seen them in Annies catalogue

NEVER seen them before. Always new inventions for us older quilters!

I discovered (and I think it's been mentioned here) that foam earplugs work well too. You can buy them in a bottle of 100 or so at a drug store.

Unless you try the Pinmoors you won't know how much better they are then the foam earplugs. I tried every 'just as good' Pinmoor from plugs, to erasers, to earring backs, to weather stripping. The Pinmoors stay on and are self healing.

I bought 2 bags of pinmoors and tried them. They made my quilt really heavy and I hated them. I keep meaning to send them to my sister to try-she might like them.

I don't use them for basting as I never pin baste. I use them to keep me from getting pricked when using a pin to hold anything. I hate pin pricks, they hurt. The Pinmoors stay on until I take the pin out, great for matching seams with pins.
